Buffy and Angel at the Emmys

DB, though he can do other stuff, has a role that he's good at and which he keeps doing. As he gets older, he's probably going to have to cut down on the action-y side, though as a big guy he can probably make that believable for longer. He's probably pretty bankable now for a certain kind of character.

As long as he can look tough and fit most of the actual fighting can be done by stunt people. Rockford as i dimly recall, was more a 'rough them up' guy than an action hero. It was a role the orignal did in middle age - so i doubt anyone is thinking he will be doing "seal team-y" action.

I missed this. Are SMG and DB presenting together?

According to this article, they're invited to present, but not officially confirmed. They've also invited the ladies from Charlie's Angels original TV series - and they're likely to present together, so you can assume they'll pair SMG and DB.

Although I'd laugh if they didn't! 🤣

Yes, it's not so much "Is David physically capable?" as "Can we believe he can do it?" If he looks big and generally physically capable, then it's believable, even if the stunt double does the heavy lifting.

Though DB was in his late 40s at the start of SEAL Team! So, mid-50s by the end.

Probably, but they specifically wrote them in the creative elements announced for the 78th Emmy Awards
  • The broadcast will feature celebrations of the milestone 30th anniversary of Buffy the Vampire Slayer with David Boreanaz and Sarah Michelle Gellar, and the 50th anniversary of Charlie’s Angels with Kate Jackson, Cheryl Ladd and Jaclyn Smith.
 
Well, my nerdy BTVS self was grinning away when the theme music played and they presented together. Just like last year when we saw Aly and SMG appearing together during some television spots/interviews!
 

Well, that was fun. Anyone want to discuss what was up with Wesley's dad having a Life Model Decoy? I mean, that's really weird right, some unknown party can make robots to infiltrate the watchers? Were ninjas involved? And Wesley's parents are still alive, that's a relief.

Sarah Michelle Gellar Claps Back at Photographers Asking Her to Kiss ‘Buffy’ Costar David Boreanaz on Emmys Carpet

Sarah Michelle Gellar had the perfect response for photographers asking her to plant a kiss on her Buffy costar, David Boreanaz. Gellar, 49, was alongside Boreanaz, 57, on the blue carpet at the 2026 Emmy Awards on Monday when she was asked to kiss her former colleague. “I don’t think his wife...

Re: Kiss; My understanding is that it's not necessarily that big a deal for many actors. See, Sir Patrick Stewart and most of the men in his life. But that doesn't make it any less weird for us muggles.

I think it's one thing to do an acting kiss, which is very, very different from a real kiss, and another to being egged on to kiss someone for what is essentially fan service and a pay day for the paparazzi. I think Sarah handled it well. It's not her (or David's) job to titillate us by kissing. David and Sarah kissing in public is a very different thing from Buffy and Angel kissing on film. One is a job, the other is... crossing a line. If she and David had been comfortable with it, that was one thing... Stargate's Michael Shanks and Ben Browder kissed at 2008 comicon. Actually I think they may have done it more than once (not just that comicon).

(from the pictures that follow, it's clear it was a fun moment)

No one should expect that two actors should pucker up to make paparazzi happy, however. We are not owed a thing.

Honestly that felt like the wrong crowd for the joke. They clearly didn't get the reference

Agree. Really odd to ask them to kiss. They're not their characters - they're Sarah and David. Unless they were taking part in a scripted bit, why would they kiss? Weird.
